I know it's in there, but if you are not familiar with gtk conventions at all, you have to first figure out what that means exactly, and then you have to find the correct way of free-ing the container and what it contains (which is not necessarily g_object_unref, it can contain strings, boxed types, ...). That's why I really prefer having it mentioned explicitly, memory handling is boring enough/error-prone enough so anything that makes it simpler is a plus in my opinion. Christophe
